I really don't like people writing in text language by the way, not because of the reasons you lot stated, but because it takes me longer to try and work out what on earth is being said!

However, I will LOL 'til the cows come home. So there.

ChazsBrilliantAttitude · 18/01/2013 18:02

It discusts me but I do it - to misquote WS Gilbert

I know, I agree, I mean Eddie Redmayne? Seriously.

giraffesCantGoFirstFooting · 18/01/2013 18:09

wank

MardyBraWouldDoEddieRedmayne · 18/01/2013 18:09

If you're going to enact some bodily function because you laughed, at least make it original. For example:
"I laughed so much at your comments that I let rip a fart with as much force as an Icelandic volcano and fear I now have a brown stain in my pants". (I'm sure you can all can all be much more inventive).

What's with thread police?

I don't mind seeing lol or or a x, so what.

It's the fucking high a mighty attitudes in threads like these the piss me off.

ClippedPhoenix · 18/01/2013 18:10

"That" of course just in case the pendants are out

MardyBraWouldDoEddieRedmayne · 18/01/2013 18:12

scottishmummy · 18/01/2013 18:14

I think if you say bleddy instead of bloody you can't take any stance on mn syntax
bleddy is that that bloody is too coarse?so use the cutsey wutsey made up alternative
next all the lufflys will turn up going on about vairy nice hams
